Description

Laughing Glass Studios is the husband and wife team of Charles and Pamela Bogdonoff. Together they create beautiful stained glass and mosaic works of art.

Each piece of glass is chosen for its exquisite color, then carefully hand cut and ground in fine detail. We design in any shape, size or colors to fit your specifications whether you are looking for a window panel, unique table, mirror, backsplash, stepping stone, etc. Pieces can be designed for interior or exterior use. Materials used: glass, porcelain, 3-D glass objects, etc.

Our "Message Mirrors" include an inspirational word to help us tap into our higher ideals, like our DREAM mirror on the left.

Unsurpassed in beauty and flexibility, mosaic is the universal, time-tested art of laying pieces of ceramic or glass to form a cohesive pattern. Mosaic comes from the Greek word Mousa, for Muse or Inspiration.

Philosophy and Comments

Quite simply, we want our pieces to bring the same joy and happiness to people as we receive in creating them. The colors in glass are so beautiful. There is something very spiritual that the colors evoke when the light is either pouring through or reflecting off of the surface. Creating with glass has been an incredible gift to us and we hope, also, to our friends and customers whose homes and gardens honor us by sharing in our works.

Work Hours and Fee Schedule

We accept PAYPAL and personal checks. You can contact us at LoftRec@aol.com. Charles and I work in our home studio. I put on Bach, Mozart, The Beatles or Deva Premal and begin working on our latest project. Prices are determined by each piece, taking into consideration our labor and the materials involved. We are more than happy to e-mail you extra pictures (if we have them!) of our creations. We have an extensive catalogue which you can view by clicking VIEW PRODUCTS or IMAGE GALLERY in the upper left side of this page. You will see table tops, window panels, birdbaths, mirrors, backsplashes, etc. Thank you for stopping by!

CONTEMPORARY DESIGNS

We want our pieces to bring people joy. Here is a contemporary style table top that Charles designed. It is a mix of bold primary colors surrounding beautiful art glasses. We named it St. Joseph!

OCEAN DREAMS

"Light is life to glass." This is so true when the sun streams in the windows and colors become brilliant. OCEAN DREAMS is a beautiful piece we created of fish in an ocean cavern.

OCTOPUS

Octopus has more pieces than any other work we have ever done. Several thousand pieces of glass were use in the traditional Roman mosaic style. The blues, creams and gold create a beautiful mixture. This really is a great work of art! It is spectacular in the window with the light streaming through. The piece was commissioned for a in a spa in Palm Beach.

The ARTISTS

HEALING THROUGH COLOR & LIGHT



Laughing Glass Studios



Charles & Pamela Bogdonoff have been creating stained glass mosaics for over 25 years. It was a journey that incorporated healing on many levels. Most importantly, to help Charles heal from cancer. That is how they began the Message Mirrors. They would put an inspirational word on each mirror to help people and inspire healing and hope. Words like JOY, LOVE, BELIEVE, FAITH, DREAM, IMAGINE...



Their healing journey took them on many many paths, mostly alternative and love inspired, sometimes allopathic. They always feel guided. The stained glass mosaics that come from their hearts are made with love and with the intention that their creations will bring grace, beauty and healing into your home and hearts.
